Thanks for the hint! Removing the prism2_pci module solves the problem (eth0 is again the default wireless interface) also in my case. -- WIFI broken in Edgy https://launchpad.net/bugs/63508 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Just to comment on similarities with bug 62685. I am not using WPA, but the standard bulit-in WEP via Ubuntu's Networking, and have in Dapper not (to my knowledge) blacklisted or changed anything from the default install. -- WIFI broken in Edgy https://launchpad.net/bugs/63508 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 63508] Re: WIFI broken in Edgy
I have an MA311 card which the orinoco/_pci modules handled before. Since the recent kernel updates, which include the linux-wlan modules, I had to mess around manually rmmoding modules. The MA311 is a Prism2.5 card, apparently, which can be handled by hostap, orinoco *and* prism2 modules. This is fine; but *all* the modules are loaded, when of course only one is necessary. Is this just the way Linux dynamically loads drivers? That seems pretty redundant, and a waste of memory. Perhaps this is a larger problem? -- WIFI broken in Edgy https://launchpad.net/bugs/63508 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
